(it's getting nerve-racking and exciting...) - 😏 damn autocorrectors!
It's almost time, and my work is now-ish parked... obviously going to do some more (y'all got to get it done) while flying, but mostly I am done for the time being.
Still need to pack, fight the family "We are going to miss you so much" things, and eventually drop in tears somewhere mid-flight 😭🤣 - usual flashback stuff... when transitioning from work to vacation mode. Nothing serious, just life! I am human for fork sake! Or maybe I am not? We will see...
You can tell I am excited right? That's right! I am fricking OUT! 🤣 First time always packs a mix of, "how the hell people are going to be in real life?", with "are they going to get spooked by who I am?", but all good... the experience is already starting!
Well, seriously... I am sure I am going to get lots of great feelings and positive vibes from this experience, and I WILL NEVER FORGET IT AGAIN, I am sure of that... which is one of the biggest objectives of this trip. Plus finding awesome new people and finally meeting the ones I already know digitally.
...plus, I am just enjoying Friday! 😜
(recall me to NOT forget the fricking Hats people!!!) - first thing going into my hand luggage! (yes, that's how bad I don't trust aeroplanes)
I wish there was a flight like this... 😍
Unfortunately, this is going to be a 4-leg trip, and similar to some other bums (probably way more used to these things than mine), it might get some shapes...
Not yet sure which shapes, if hexagonal, squared, or maybe triangular?... who knows? 😆 (maybe knows 🤷♂️)
Anyhow, just wanted to provide people with the right receptacle for what I said on post, on the #HPUD #Giveaway post. Here is it, if you want to do a quick review: @forykw/powerup-september-see-you-in-hivefest
I will use this as the main post and make any announcements via comments or depending on the situation, on a new one via the same "series" on the title. In addition, if you want to follow these posts, check the #forkyfest tag. I will be using it during this experience.
That's it for now, tomorrow or before I head out, I might post again. For now, will leave you with what I said on the #giveaway...
The Giveaway!
(recalling what I said on the above post)

I will bring 2 (two) Hats like the one below to #HiveFest, this year... and I will give them away (on Day 3), to two random persons at the event who are also liquidity providers on at least one of the ATX pools! In this case, you have two liquidity pools, ATX:SWAP.HIVE and ATX:BEER.
The way I am going to do this is by offering you an ATX sticker (3.8 x 3.8 cm) and 1 ATX token for you to successfully show me your account providing liquidity to the pool (you can do this using the Hive Keychain browser on your phone/tablet, or via your PC browser in advance).
If you are already eligible (because you already know all this), please also come along for a chat and/or just a quick introduction. I would be more than happy to provide you with an ATX sticker anyhow (I will keep the free 1 ATX for those who don't yet know how to purchase these, I am sure you will understand it).
And don't worry about the amount needed for the eligibility, any amount will be OK. And if you don't know how to enter with liquidity to the pools, or you don't know what the hell I am speaking about, then come to me during the event, and I will help you understand how to do it.
